Lost in Vegas
I woke up to the sound of someone saying “that’s a great place for that”, I look at the floor and see that my cell phone is lying there. Is that what they were talking about, reprimanding me about my cell phone being on the floor, how come I can’t see anyone. I picked up my phone and looked at the time 1:30, I panicked, I had to get to the monorail and get back to my hotel, but I didn’t know where I was, and I didn’t know what hotel I was staying in. I really didn’t want to have to go hail a cab, I have no problems taking a cab if someone is with me, but the thought of doing so all by myself scares me. I broke out in a cold sweat, I was lost.
The room I was in was dark, by the glow of my cell I started looking around, how could I have been hearing voices there’s no one else in the room, Sleepy Bear was tossed on the floor along with some pillows, wow, rough night, but the night had barely begun, I was all alone and lost and then it dawned on me, I was at home, in my own bed, not in Vegas, not in some unknown bed, and I didn’t have to rush off to the monorail.
It is hard to understand from how this is written what parts, or if all of it, was within a dream. That being said, I will address it as if it was in dreamtime. The dream setting or stage is a hotel room in Vegas. Hotels represent “temporary” residences and a residence or house, represents our current state of consciousness. Vegas is of course where people take a gamble. The room is in disarray and suggests chaos. You knew in the dream you had to leave there but seemed afraid to venture out and take the next step. The room is dark, but the cell phone represents “a Light” or a direction to help guide you out of the room and forward.
…..If I had this dream….I would think that whatever position my life was in at present needed to Change, as suggested by being in a hotel. Currently there seems to be too much chaos and lack of organization. Perhaps one does not even a goal, not knowing exactly what the goal should be. Pillows were tossed….pillows represent a “cushion” or “luxury” and they are casually tossed. The cell phone with a glowing light suggests that Communication is the key to finding out your direction and how to get there. Waking within the dream and finding you are home shows that the dream also represents Fears of what may come to pass if one doesn’t get your life under control immediately. Perhaps stop taking chances and control how life goes forward.
…just my thoughts.

yanno folks….I hope someone eventually joins in the discussion. It’s kinda like giving feedback to a blank wall.

Hi Patsy,
I was just telling friends about you. Ummmm, I’m not sure, but I think the only part of this that was a dream was hearing the voices. But after reading what you wrote, as though the entire piece was a dream, you seem to have nailed it head on.
I think it’s cool that you come and analyze my dreams and in the future, I’ll be sure to have a conversation with you, because I like having you as a reader and am interested in what you have to say :)
